The same Term in the same Court. Brabin and Tradums Case.
THe Case was, That the Church-wardens of D. had used time out of mind to dispose and order all the Seats of the Church, wherupon they disposed of a Seat to one, and the Ordinary granted the same Seat to another and his* 1.1Heirs, and excommunicated all others, who afterwards should sit in the Seat, and a Prohibition was prayed and granted, for this grant of a Seat to one and his Heirs is not good, for the Seat doth not belong to the person, but to the house, for otherwise when the person goes out of the Town to dwell in ano∣ther place, yet he shall retain the Seat, which is no reason, and also it is no reason to excommunicate all others that should sit there, for such great pu∣nishments should not be imposed upon such small Offenders, an Excommu∣nication being Traditio diabola.
